Abstract

A lambda cnc mutation masks the phenotype of the lambda cin-1 mutation. Eleven cnc mutations have been found. All appear to be identical and all map at a site just to the right of the cin-1 site. It is probable that cin-1 and cnc affect adjacent, or almost adjacent nucleotide pairs. Neither the cin-1 nor the cnc mutation involves large additions or deletions of genetic material.

Mitotic karyotyping and FISH mapping of the gender-specific locus indicate an advanced XY system in Hippophae rhamnoides.

Hippophae rhamnoides ssp. turkestanica, a subdioecious plant inhabiting the cold desert of the Indian Himalaya, has gained immense recognition for its nutritional and medicinal values. In recent years, the plant species has proven to be a suitable system to understand the evolution of dioecy. Despite its biological significance, the cytogenetics of this dioecious plant is unclear due to various conflicting accounts of its X-Y chromosome system, particularly the length of Y-chromosome. In this study, we resolved these ambiguities through comprehensive cytogenetic analyses across diverse western Himalayan populations. Using morphometric analysis and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with a gender-specific marker (HRMSSR), we confirmed homomorphic XX chromosomes in females and heteromorphic sex-chromosomes in males with a notably smaller Y-chromosome. The investigation also revealed a predominant somatic chromosome number of 2n = 24, although minor deviations (2n = 18, 20, 22) appeared at the seed level. These findings highlight an evolutionarily advanced sex-chromosome system. This first detailed cytogenetic investigation of Himalayan Seabuckthorn provides critical insights into the chromosomal architecture, laying a crucial foundation for future evolutionary, genomic, and conservation studies in the species.

The new approaches to whole genome analysis of bacteria.

A range of recombinant DNA techniques now enables whole genome analysis of any bacterium to be carried out without recourse to the classical means of bacterial genetic exchange. Using enzymes which cut infrequently, such as SpeI, combined with pulsed field gel electrophoresis, a physical map of ordered fragments can be constructed. By means of cloned fragments of known genes or oligonucleotides synthesized using data from DNA or protein sequence banks, the location of individual genes on this map can be determined. We have used these techniques to study whole genome structure in three species of Pseudomonas: P. aeruginosa, P. putida and P. solanacearum.
